Oil Gauge
I put a new instrument cluster in my 68 LWB Step side. The original was had just an idiot light cluster so I upgraded to the full gauge package. I have everything hooked up and working correctly except the oil gauge. I have the copper tubing run from the back of the gauge into the engine compartment, I need help identifying where to make the connection to the block. Can I get some help?

Re: Oil Gauge
small bock would be on the back beside the distributor.
big block would be on the side, down low, by the oil filter Inline I have no clue V-6... not even the slightest |

Re: Oil Gauge
V-8 right behind/right of the dist.
Should look like this (below pic) and should be very close to the firewall. Hope that helps... |

Re: Oil Gauge
